With so much time spent around the dining table, why not place the focus on your pendant light fixture!

Miniature trees in an enclosed forest appear more elegant under cloches and domes, like these versions by Emily Henderson. The simplest centerpiece is a grouping of shimmering ornaments piled up high in a pedestal vase, place it in the middle of your holiday table like this one at Style at Home for an easy way to add sparkle.
Glitter and tinsel are your best friends when you crave a little sparkle, layer chip board letters from a craft store with silvery glitter for a seasonal sentiment like this swag from Better Homes & Gardens.
